This is a walk through Mumbai's famous Thieves Market – Chor in Hindi means thief.

Chor Bazaar has a whole range of products on offer, from genuine bargains to mass-produced junk. You can find brassware, ceramics, handicrafts, glass lamps, clocks, gramophones, old maps, paintings, dowry chests, coffee tables, rocking chairs, and everything else under the sun. Be prepared to rummage around if you want to buy something!

If you don’t want to shop, this walk can still be fun. Apart from Chor Bazaar, the walk will take us to several places of general interest. You’ll see Gol Deoul, the circular Shiva temple, and gain an understanding of the Shiva cult. You’ll visit the bustling Null Bazaar (fruits, vegetables, meat and fish) and meet the Kolis, the original fishing community of Bombay. You will also get a rare glimpse into the life of the Bohras, a community of minority Shia Muslims. In addition, the tour provides an opportunity to observe authentic Muslim cooking first-hand.
